Mechanical Lock Box

This was by far the favorite Kiwi project! It took a little patience’s and following directions but they had so much fun making their lock “secret” box! I’m so glad I purchased one for each of the kids. They painted them when they finished building them. They are so proud of them! It was the summer highlight for sure!!! Highly recommend this project!!

This is very well engineered and I use it a lot in my daily lifestyle.
